Hi Ray - yes this is my man. His father George HAZELL was in fact married 3 times and I believe that Edward was the son of his first wife Rose Amelia CRUMP but on his marriage certificate (available on Ancestry) Edward has given his mother's name as Ellen ALDRIDGE (his father's third wife)! But all the dates tally and his date of emigration fits with a note on his UK military service record to say that he had been given permission to reside in Canada on 13 Apr 1912. (He had visited Canada several times previously.)
I should like to make contact with any living descendants of this family - looks as though I will have to wait for the release of the 1921 Canadian census to find out the names of any children.
I am not related to this family but am doing a wide ranging search into HAZELL families from South Bucks, England with the aim of trying to connect them to one another and to the branch from which my husband is descended. Many thanks for all your help so far, Sue
